7:14 am
pickup truck to rip off the doors and then scatter inside wearing hoodies and masks and gloves, grabbing as many guns as rifles as they could carry. it looks like they had something of a plan. you can see one suspect using a hammer to smash through the glass cases holding guns while others follow behind him and stuff them into bags. another suspect seems to target the long guns right off that rack behind the counter. they took at least 50 weapons and in a little more than two minutes, they were gone. investigators say the group switched vehicles about a block away and took off into the darkness. this was such a rush job, police found weapons left behind lying on the street outside the store. law enforcement officials say stolen weapons like these are often sold on the black market. criminals buying and selling guns to other criminals. >> you got another criminal element that needs firearms to commit their crimes, sometimes associated with the drug trade or robberies. >> reporter: investigators say

8:05 am
have the same opportunity to better themselves that i did when i was growing up. so there is a very real sense of frustration. but it doesn't justify some of the sort of incendiary rhetoric that trump engages in, and frankly, the bullying. >> the bottom line is that you say you cannot support him for president because he would be dangerous in the white house. >> that's right. i mean, look, you can't -- we have arab allies in the middle east, we disagree with them often on many topics. but we need them in the war on terror against enemies like isis and al qaeda in the arabian peninsula. so when you say things like you're going to exclude all muslims from the united states, we alienate the very people we need to partner with to win the war on terror and to protect the citizens of the united states. >> donald trump said that months ago. he said it, and he was asked about it on a debate stand. there have been a number of debates. none of the other republican candidates have been able to convince those voting that that's dangerous. what difference is a letter going to make?
8:06 am
>> well, look, it may not make any difference. but you know, i really do think that people with the background and expertise who've actually, you know, donald trump hasn't ever had the experience in terms of having to get something done in terms of foreign policy. the people who signed this letter have, and they do understand what it takes. this is not a real estate deal. and so i do think that his rhetoric, and this wild sort of pillar to post sort of foreign policy of his is dangerous to the american people. >> okay, fran, specifically, he says the enemy is cutting off the heads of christians and drowning them in cages and yet we are too politically correct to respond in kind. donald trump says torture works. >> well, look, i -- if he is suggesting that we ought to be beheading people, i don't think there's anybody, republican or democrat, who would support such a thing. i mean, it's just ludicrous to me. and i don't under -- this i do not understand. i don't understand -- and i don't believe that the american people would support a policy of
8:07 am
beheading because that's what our enemies are doing. >> fran, there is a theory that would go, listen, he's saying things that will sort of get him nominated. get him elected -- voted in by the public. and that he doesn't necessarily mean these things and he could back off of them. does that give any credence to that theory? >> you know, soledad, i'm a great believer that the presidents go through a maturing process, and the primary to get the nomination is a hyperpolitical one. but what you want to hear are real ideas. i understand that this is the political season. so do our allies around the world. but, you're also expect that there's going to be an exchange of ideas and debate on the substance, as opposed to what's happened, which is name calling, and it's just not helpful. >> you're suggesting it goes beyond the pale in contrast to everybody else who's ever run for president? >> that's right, charlie. and i do think that there's a judgment and temperament issue here. and, donald trump at least up to now, to soledad's point, up to now, he has sort of shown himself not to have the judgment

schlesinger is here this morning with "eye on the money." >> great to be here. >> how was last year? and how is this year looking if you're thinking about selling your home? >> last couple of years we've seen good recovery. this pretty much tracks with the recovery in the jobs market. people feel more confident. an we also know that lending standards are a little bit easi easier. it's still tough to get a mortgage but it is easier. and people have more confidence in buying a home when they feel more secure economically. >> so lots of good news. >> that said, there is a bit of a problem right now is which we've got low inventory. just not a lot of houses on the market. and that pushes prices up. great if you're a seller. not so good if you're a buyer. >> okay. so when you hear that maybe i should sell my house but you say first thing to think about though are the tax implications. >> right. a lot of people may have owned their homes for decades and they go and sell their homes and they don't realize, uh-oh i have a big capital gains tax due. not everybody, you're lucky if you do, obviously, but check that out. i also want to be very clear, a lot of people are thinking about downsizing, right?

>> but if you have a capital gain and you invest it in another house you don't have to pay taxes on that. >> well, actually not. you have to pay your capital gains if you've lived in that house two of the last five years. so you can't push it forward unless it's a rental property. so you do have to pay that capital gains tax. but the most important thing also to recognize is that you're looking to downsize, you've got that capital gains, you may not actually see any real savings by downsizing. i think a lot of people fall into a trap i want to go to a place with nice amenities, but actually, it's not so cheap to do so. >> how do you choose a real estate agent? >> you've got to get a lot of people in the house. and here's very important. most people get a referral. oh, it's a friend. right? you know, you want to get at least three people to come in. they're going to do a competitive market analysis. what do you want to know? you want to know does this person have experience in your neighborhood in your price range? does this person have a digital plan for helping to sell your house and marketing plan? and what kind of social media presence does this person have? because you know what? you want to attract first time home buyers.

>> i'm going to pass on what was said in the room because i'm going to honor -- >> that is the point. >> i know, but i'm going to honor the of-the-record that the editorial board put in place. >> but, dean, it wasn't entirely off-the-record. >> right. >> i mean, i wonder whether "the new york times" made a mistake because it wasn't entirely off the record. he said something about terror flaws and then went back and said can we put this on the record and that got put on the record. according to your own public editor -- >> yeah. he asked that some things be put on the record. trump did. so he opened the door. he said i'm happy to talk about some things on the record and we want it to be off the record. >> to be clear, if donald trump were to say today to put the whole thing on the record, would "the new york times" comply? >> that would be andy rosenthal's call. >> would he report it? do you think a good idea? clearly this is something that everybody is trying to figure out what exactly he said and if he is reversing -- >> i would support what andy says today. >> a little bit of a dodge? >> a little bit of a dodge. to be frank, even though i was
8:37 am
present and i agreed to the circumstances, it wasn't my meeting. if i it hod it over again, by the way, i probably shouldn't go to meetings like that. >> no. >> i went to this one, to be frank, because i was a journalist andive dying to hear what he said. >> i don't understand why you don't call him up and say i'd like to sit down with you. you're the editor of "the new york times" and talk about your candidacy. you don't need an editorial board meeting to do that. >> our reporters do that. he is not shy about talking. >> you said you wanted to go to the meeting to meet the candidate. >> but i wanted to go to the meeting to see the show. i'm a journalist. i wanted to go to the meeting to see the show. i wanted to go to the meeting to see what donald trump looked like in front of the editorial board of "the new york times," which he has a love/hate relationship with. on the one hand, he is a new york figure and like a lot of new york figures, he trashes "the new york times" in public. but he is deeply respectful of "the new york times" in private. i wanted to see that show. that is a different show than being on the phone with him.
8:38 am
and i couldn't resist. >> can we talk about the business of "the new york times" and the future of the newspaper, its financial solvency? what has to be done to transform "the times" for the tutor? >> i actually think -- i think this is a large issue. and a lot has been done. i think "the new york times" -- "the new york times" making it to the future, which i'm convinced it will, is one of the most important stories in american journalism. "the new york times" is making a very powerful bet, and most other news organizations have not made the bet, and the bet goes like this -- we will make it to the future as a high-quality journalistic institution without compromise, without slipping into gossip. so that is -- this is an interesting, i think, historical bet, and what will it take to do that? it will take, first, sticking to our guns. we will cover big ambitious
8:39 am
stories in big ambitious ways and we have already embraced new technology and new ways to tell stories, and do them consistent with the values of "the new york times." >> i know one of the investments that you're making is virtual reality story telling. tell us a little bit more about as they were showing me this this morning that on -- you click on these stories and essentially see 360. >> yeah. >> you can see that. this is terrific stuff, i think. virtual reality is happening. >> yeah. this is it. what is the feedback? >> 500,000 have downloaded our virtual reality app and more than a million people have looked at virtual journalist. it's a great way to tell stories. >> what are we looking here? this is the border? >> you are looking at a film that was made in conjunction with a magazine piece in which a border patrol guard was accused of killing a kid who was on the other side of the fence. and it's just a very powerful
8:40 am
story. but what virtual reality brings -- >> like you're there. >> i'm going to say, this is a very good demonstration. knowing these things screw up! >> the border patrol agent, who has been charged with a crime, his claim was that -- was that the kid threw a rock over the fence. if you look at the fence in virtual reality and you see how high it is and you see the openings in it, the story is unbelievable. >> great. >> really brings you there and knowing where you are and knowing the distance and things like that. >> one of the most powerful examples of virtual reality was the one where we set the virtual reality team, we sent them, i can't remember, the iowa caucuses or the primary and you were in the donald trump rally. for the first time, i sat there and said, no wonder he thinks he can win. it was like -- >> very powerful. >> it was huge! it was powerful. >> so nice to see you. thanks for talking to us and thanks for the demonstration. ahead another kind of video.
